Many different types of wildlife call Highlands Ranch home, including coyotes. It is not uncommon to encounter a coyote in the open space areas of the community. As a result, it is important to be familiar with coyote behavior and what to do if you come upon one.

The Metro District has a variety of resources available on its website to help you learn how to deter coyotes from your yard, what to do if you meet one along a trail, and learn normal coyote behavior.
